Actually reading your comment again “Torque Converter” sounds really familiar so that’s probably it. If we are running a pool I got $5 on stuck torque converter lockup clutch.

Yeah like I said I am dumb when it comes to cars and this was years ago so I may misremember. All I know is that if I got my car up over around 50mph it would shake violently and stall when I stopped. Then if it sat for 10-20 minutes it would be ok again (until it got in 4th again). I do know they disabled something that reduced my mpg slightly and I never had the issue again for the 2 years I still had the car. Again I don’t remember 100% but I think he literally just unplugged a cable. Charged me 75 for diagnostics and 25 for labor.
I just looked up your owners manual and you have a switch on your shifter knob to turn off overdrive.
I’m not mechanical in any way but it sounds very similar to what happened to me. It turned out to be some issue with the transmission. There is something called overdrive or something like that where when you go in 4th gear it engages and you get better highway fuel economy. The problem was it would engage but would get stuck and not disengage which would stall the engine (and shake the car violently) when coming to a stop. I took it to a mechanic and they gave me an option. Fix it for 2000 or disconnect it for 100. I disconnected it and I lost maybe 1-2mpg while driving freeway. Some cars have a button to turn off overdrive so you could try that if yours does.
Some people hate it just because they want to feel superior. They want FOSS but there is no FOSS that comes close to excel.
Pretty sure there is no .winks TLD
